CurveConductor adds procedural, curve‑driven timing to After Effects. One editable control curve governs the timing of many properties simultaneously, removing the need to tweak individual bezier handles.
Developed by David Beal.

About CurveConductor
CurveConductor provides a procedural approach to timing in After Effects. Instead of adjusting bezier handles on each property, a single editable control curve drives the timing of multiple properties at once. As you modify the curve, every linked property updates live, allowing custom timing without matching eases individually. Developed by David Beal, the plugin is listed in the aescripts library and is compatible with After Effects versions 2022 through 2026. Version 1.0 was released on June 19, 2026. It is offered as a free download, but users should review the developer’s licensing page for current usage terms.
